    The discovery thread!

    The NP audio sparkos ss2590 upgrade to the Aroma A100TB. Just got it back from England today and paired it with my Cayin N7. This is the best setup I have heard. The seperation and dynamics are hard to believe. I have the C9 but this is way beyond it and I love my C9. Steve at NP Audio changes...

    I've got this set and tried the Pentaconn Coreir on them with great success. The midrange is even better with a kind of resonance and the bass is increased by the deeper fit they achieve. Still this unit really shines with aucustic music, Cat Steven has never sounded better.

    I have the Simfonio paired with the Cayin N7 and love it. I really get to enjoy the pre amp with the discrete circuit of the N7. I do find it does need 20 minutes to warm up just like the little card they ship with it states.

    @Scuba Devils I have the Sound Tiger Sinfonia on order and expect it next month. It looks to be a perfect pairing with the pre amp out on the N7. Capacitors for days and loads of headroom this should be a good one.

    I have the N7 and almost exclusively pair it with the Aroma A100TB with the PS100 and op amps Burson iV5 on the output and Muses 02 on the input. With that being said the pair up is my favorite even though I have a C9 which I also pair it with. For me the N7 really shines when paired with an...

    I have the Xenns Up as my bass extension set but was looking for something more.... I have looked at the Fat Freq MM as well as the 7hz Legato this set seems to strike a balance between the two. I do have the Solar cable on my Dethonray Tender's and the AG8 cable on my Serials also the Leo 2...

    I have the Ibasso DX240 and the Mojo 2 as well. I use a cayin Ru6 to get the R2R sound from my Ibasso but am tempted to add this unit to my team.

    I find the Ibasso quite versatile as I use it as a source for both my Dethonray Honey H1, my Mojo 2 and my Cayin C9. In each instance it performs flawlessly. I have also recently used it with my Aroma TB100. With the external amps the sound is the best I have heard and cant imagine how it could...

    I paired this cable to my Dethonray Tender's with remarkable effect. My cable is terminated in 4.4 only as I use it with the Aroma TB100. I don't have the switchable connections. With this combination the Tender's are sublime. I have seen the graph for them and it doesn't make sense to my ears...

    I have this set and love them. I paired them with an ISN Solar balanced cable and use an Aroma TB100 to power them to perfection.

    I tried these with a Silver Dragon which is an all Silver cable and although they sounded good it was just a little too bright for me so I switched out to the Copper and they sounded perfect.

    I have the Baldur 2 and love them. I have them paired with a Bronze Dragon cable from Moon Audio which smoothes out the treble extension a bit. They sound fantastic with excellent treble extension that works wonderfully with horns especially when listening to Jazz. They can also hit the low...

    Sorry to hear that as I use mine quite a bit, hopefully it doesn't suffer the same fate. It's so versatile and sounds so good.
